• Quality first: FMS will be the quality of the product in the first place, because the quality of the product is the life of our enterprise

• Service priority: all employees at FMS are aware that we must provide quality service to exceed our competitors

• Customer satisfaction: FMS puts customer satisfaction in an important position, because our success depends on our ability to satisfy our customers

• Continuous improvement: all of FMS's employees are aware that we must continue to improve our competitive edge to exceed our competitors

Quality Management System

Through our unique quality improvement initiative, AIMQ (FMS Integrated Manufacturing Quality), the quality and reliability are designed in our products and manufacturing is strictly controlled to ensure that the performance of our products conforms to the desired quality and reliability as determined at design stage.

Quality in Design

The DFSS (Design for Six Sigma) methodology is adopted in the design and development of our new products and processes, with the goal to have Quality designed in from the start so that the variability of the critical parameters, which were dictated by customers' requirements, are optimized for predictive product performance, manufacturability and reliability.

Quality in Manufacturing

The quality management system of FMS and our key subcontractors is in compliance with the SSQA requirements. SSQA stands for Standardized Supplier Quality Assessment, which is a set of world class quality standards developed by SEMATECH.

Our dedicated foundry and subcontractor management teams work closely with their respective foundries and subcontractors to monitor the quality of our products and ensure that manufacturing of our products is in strict compliance with the relevant process control and monitoring procedures and product requirements.
